In this paper we describe recent work carried out in the context of the TTC project1 towards the automatic construc-tion of comparable corpora for multilin-gual terminology extraction. We focus on the communicative intention as the variable of discourse analysis that is best suited to select Web documents valuable for terminology applications and propose a classifier based on language independent features to automatically cluster crawled documents sharing the same communica-tive intention. The results of our experi-ments indicate the need to consider more sophisticated features. 1
